I play games like WoW and CS on a regular basis..Cs runs at a smooth frame rate of 100 fps and WoW around 40-60 fps depending on the area.

Over the past 1 month or so I have experiencing slight problems while playing.
While playing my the game just gets stuck for like 3-4 seconds every 10-15 minutes.This is not a hardware problem,WoW does not freeze.The problem is the internet.It's like a lag spike or the data doesn't get transferred.
My browsing and download speeds seem normal.

I have tried formatting my PC,unplugged and plugged the network cable into the modem.With reference to WoW(deleted the ***,WDB cache and interface folders).Updated the drivers of the network card.I was on Vista 32bit before and now am on XP professional.

When I contacted my ISP they said that everything was fine at their end.

Any help would be appreciated
Thank you.
